Excerpt from The Student's Manual of Ancient GeographyThese are the principal additions made to the original work. In arranging the materials in a systematic form, great pains have been taken to make the book as interesting as the nature Of the subject would allow. The tedium naturally produced by an enumeration of political boun daries and topographical notices is relieved by historical and ethnographical discussions, while the numerous maps, plans, and other illustrations, give life and reality to the descriptions. The Retreat of the Ten Thousand Greeks, the Expedition Of Alexander the Great, and similar subjects, are discussed and explained. It has been an especial object to supply information on all points required by the upper classes in the public schools, and by students in the universities.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
